Triona McCarthy: The Best Travel-Sized Beauty Products I Love, from Boots, MAC, Sculpted by Aimee, Chanel, and Brown Thomas

Whether you’re on a break at home or exploring abroad, our columnist has you covered with the best travel-ready products that are essential for your holiday. Currently, I’m in West Cork for my brother Justin’s wedding to the lovely Doreen. Doreen was actually a close friend of my late sister Tricia, and they even lived together in NYC. It’s heartwarming to see Doreen find happiness with Justin.

But let’s move on to the future, and if you’re looking forward to some time away in tropical destinations or along the West Cork coastline, let me help you get your beauty essentials in order.

One essential item is the Sculpted by Aimee Travel Makeup Bag, priced at €18. You can find it at the Sculpted by Aimee flagship store on Grafton Street, D2, or on their website sculptedbyaimee.com. Being organized at home translates to being organized on the road, so I recommend getting a large white tub and filling it with your favorite travel-sized beauty products. These are often included as gifts-with-purchase. Anything under 100ml can go in the tub, and if you’re traveling locally, you can simply take the tub with you in the car. If you’re flying or taking a train, pack your suitcase from the tub.

In addition to the Sculpted by Aimee Travel Makeup Bag, there are other mini products available at Sculpted by Aimee. You can take advantage of their ‘three for €35’ offer and choose from options like the CloudCream Nourishing Ceramide Moisturizer, HydraGlo Hydrating Serum, and Body Base Instant Tan. If you’re looking for something compact and easy to pack, I highly recommend their Travel Makeup Case priced at €18.

MAC has also introduced some minis to their lineup, such as the Mini Hyper Real Serumizer priced at €32 available on boots.ie. This serum-moisturizer hybrid is perfect for creating a flawless canvas for your makeup. And if you’re in need of a mascara, try out the bestselling Mini Mac Stack Mascara priced at €16 also available on boots.ie.

Another fantastic product is the Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream Travel Size priced at €37. You can find it at Brown Thomas. This cream-gel bronzer is multifunctional, allowing you to enhance your face and body with a natural sun-kissed glow that’s easy to blend. A little goes a long way, making it the perfect addition to your summer beauty bag for a quick color boost.

If you’re a fan of Chanel No 5 like my mom Margaret, then you’ll love the Eau De Parfum Purse Spray 3 X 20ML priced at €136. She refuses to leave her beloved fragrance behind when traveling, and this sleek black and gold container is perfect for carrying her favorite scent. There’s also an Eau de Toilette version priced at €118, and refills are available for both options. It’s interesting to note that when Gabrielle Chanel designed the famous 2.55 bag, she included a special inside pocket specifically for her top fragrance, Chanel No 5.

Now, let’s talk about three of the best face mists available:

1. Bare by Vogue Hydrating Facial Mist priced at €24, available on barebyvogue.com as well as in pharmacies and retailers nationwide. This new 2-in-1 skincare and makeup mist provides hydration and nourishment while delivering a dewy glow. It can be used over makeup or tan, and simply shaking the bottle activates the shimmer particles. The mist contains lactic acid, glycerin, and panthenol.

2. Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Hydrator Mist Radiant Skin Rescue Essence priced at €42. It will be launching on June 30, and you can find it on charlottetilbury.com. This mist is inspired by the rejuvenating effects of an oxygen facial and gives you that special glow even when you’re on the go.

3. Ella & Jo 3-in-1 Hyaluronic Skin Mist priced at €28, available on ellaandjo.ie. This mist is filled with hydrating and skin-loving ingredients and is loved not only by me, but also by actress Rebel Wilson. The hyaluronic acid in the mist acts as a humectant, bringing water to the skin and plumping out cells, leaving you with smooth and hydrated skin.

So, whether you’re visiting tropical destinations or exploring the beautiful West Cork coastline, make sure you have these travel-ready beauty products with you for an unforgettable vacation.
